RCN: 271.     Lectotype(Jansen, Spices, Condiments Med. Pl Ethiopia:. 249. 1981): Herb. Linn. No. 49.2 ( LINN).    Generitypeof  TamarindusLinnaeus.   Note:Fawcett & Rendle ( Fl. Jamaica4: 119. 1920), and a number of later authors, indicated unspecified material at LINN as the type, but failed to distinguish between sheets 49.1, 49.2 and 49.3. These are not part of the same gathering so Art. 9.15 does not apply. Larsen & Larsen (in Aubreville& Leroy, Fl. Cambodge Laos Viet-Nam18: 146. 1980) indicated 49.1 (LINN) as type but it lacks the  Species Plantarumnumber (i.e. "1") and is not original material for the name. Jansen'schoice, also made independently by Polhill (in Jarvis & al., Regnum Veg.127: 92. 1993), is accepted here. 2611640485 LINN 49.2 lectotype
